Spring is a time for new life.... which in Michigan means the "Rites of Spring" ride! May 1-2, 2004. There were over 800 riders (plus friends/family) last year. It's within driving distance from Dayton, and you will have a great time.

Make a plan to get on with your new life. I watched the last hour of "Cast Away" last night. Have you seen it? Tom Hanks is marooned on an island for 4 years, and is finally rescued. Comes home and found out that friends and family had given him up for dead. His wife ended up re-marrying and had a kid. Hanks was deserted once again, and life looked as gloomy as it did on the island. That is, of course, until something "washed ashore" that saved/changed his life.
Kinda corny, but watching the end of the movie made me think of your situation, and how it can seem like doom and gloom. But you never know what life can bless you with next...
And be thankful kids are not involved (speaking for someone who came from a broken home).
